About the Producer

Sea Sisters is Britain’s first craft cannery and is run by Charlotte and Angus in Bridport, West Dorset.

The idea for the company came about in 2020 when the couple found, during the Covid pandemic, while they were buying lots of tins and store cupboard products, that they couldn’t source any tinned fish from the UK, to feed them and their young family. They decided to create their own and then name the company in honour of their two daughters who showed ‘the immeasurable importance of sisterhood’ during that time.

Angus is the chef and has a background working in some amazing London restaurants. He started all the recipe testing in their tiny kitchen, whilst juggling parenting to two under twos. As a family who have long loved picking, spreading and snacking on delicious treats from a can, this business is hugely personal and important to them.

Sustainability

All Sea Sisters packaging is plastic free and 100% recyclable.

Sea Sisters source their fish from fisheries who use low impact methods, harvesting mature fish from abundant stocks. They support women fishermen, small fisheries and UK aquaculture.

Sea Sisters hake is harvested from the certified hake fishery in Cornwall, England. It’s certification means it is well managed and sustainable. MCS rating: 1-2.
